<h1>Adding Students to a Course</h1>
<p>
    This tutorial assumes that you have already gone through the steps of @Html.ActionLink("creating a course", "CreateCourse").  
    If you have not already created a course in OSBLE, please do so first.  
    To add users to your course, make sure that the desired course is selected in the Course/Community dropdown 
    list near the top-right of the screen.  In our example, &quot;OSBLE 101 – My OSBLE Course&quot; is the selected course.
    To add students to OSBLE 101, first click on the &quot;Users&quot; tab.  Currently, OSBLE 101 only has user, its instructor.  
    To add additional students, click the &quot;Add/Update Users&quot; link.

<p>
    Performing this action brings up a new dialog that allows you to add students by school ID number or email address.  
    OSBLE also allows users to be added in bulk through the roster import functionality.  
    As this is the most efficient method for adding students to the course, this tutorial explores this functionality.

    OSBLE is capable of handling most comma separated value (*.CSV) files.  
    To upload a file, click the &quot;Browse&quot; button, select your class' roster, and then click the &quot;Upload Roster&quot; button. 
     OSBLE will then attempt to parse the uploaded file and select the relevant headers.  
    Note that if OSBLE selects the wrong headers or was unable to detect the appropriate headers, you have the 
    ability to manually select the correct header.  When you are satisfied with the selections, click the 
    &quot;Import Roster&quot; button near the bottom of the page.
</p>

<p>
    After clicking &quot;Import Roster,&quot; OSBLE finishes parsing the uploaded CSV file and returns you to the Users tab:
</p>

<p>
    Note that any users that previously existed in the course that were not a part of the 
    roster import will have their status switched from &quot;Student&quot; to &quot;Withdrawn.&quot;  
    Any content produced by withdrawn students (e.g. discussion items) will remain intact for 
    others to be seen.  Furthermore, withdrawn students will not be added to future assignments.
